net core 2.0 check if service is running

Question

I am doing a C# Net Core 2.0 Application. I need to execute a Windows Service, but before I need to check if it is running.

I saw in this post that the best way is using ServiceController like this

try
{
    using( ServiceController sc = new ServiceController( SERVICE_NAME ) )
    {
        return sc.Status == ServiceControllerStatus.Running;
    }
}

But I do not find it in Net core 2.0

How can I checked it ?
